This is necessary to store non-POD classes in these containers.
Note that List and IdList do not use MemRealloc anymore;
this is necessarily (slightly) less efficient, but is the right
semantics, as you cannot just move non-POD types, e.g. std::string,
around in memory. All STL containers provide the same guarantees
and share the performance hit.
The slowdown is mostly mitigated by moving the contained objects,
so that no additional heap allocations or copies occur beyond
that of the object itself.
This will allow us to use non-POD classes inside these objects
in future and is otherwise functionally equivalent, as well
as more concise.
Note that there are some subtleties with handling of
brace-initialization. Specifically:
On aggregates (e.g. simple C-style structures) using an empty
brace-initializer zero-initializes the aggregate, i.e. it makes
all members zero.
On non-aggregates an empty brace-initializer calls the default
constructor. And if the constructor doesn't explicitly initialize
the members (which the auto-generated constructor doesn't) then
the members will be constructed but otherwise uninitialized.
So, what is an aggregate class? To quote the C++ standard
(C++03 8.5.1 §1):
An aggregate is an array or a class (clause 9) with no
user-declared constructors (12.1), no private or protected
non-static data members (clause 11), no base classes (clause 10),
and no virtual functions (10.3).
In SolveSpace, we only have to handle the case of base classes;
Constraint and Entity have those. Thus, they had to gain a default
constructor that does nothing but initializes the members to zero.
After this change, SolveSpace does not contain nonfree assets.
Additionally, Perl is not required for the build.
Note that in the US, case law suggests that copyright does
not apply to bitmap fonts:
http://www.renpy.org/wiki/renpy/misc/Bitmap_Fonts_and_Copyright
Nevertheless, it was prudent to replace the asset with something
that is unambiguously free.
Almost all construction requests are lines, and allowing to
draw them as construction obviates the need to select them one
by one afterwards to convert them. Also, it removes the "not closed
contour" error message, which is a nice usability improvement.
This is equivalent to adding a constraint, then making it a reference.
The benefits are that:
* it's quicker;
* it avoids having an over-constrained system, with an associated
angry red flash and a regeneration delay.
The latter in particular is a very substantial usability improvement.
The reference distance command is useful most of the time,
but the reference angle one is also added for consistency.
The main benefit is that std::swap will ensure that the type
of arguments is copy-constructible and move-constructible.
It is more concise as well.
When min and max are defined as macros, they will conflict
with STL header files included by other C++ libraries;
in this case STL will #undef any other definition.
As a side effect, zlib and libpng are now git submodules,
based on their respective official git repositories.
This is necessary, because MinGW has a different ABI and
it cannot use the prebuilt binaries built by MSVC.
The submodules are also used for Windows, for several reasons:
* to allow 64-bit builds;
* to allow using newer MSVC, which doesn't like the prebuilt
libraries;
* to keep the libraries updated.
Some extra code is necessary to determine that the back faces
should not be drawn in red for transparent solids. It is expected
that the user will first ensure that the shell is watertight
and then set the opacity; back faces are still drawn if
the opacity is exactly 1.
The savefile format is changed backwards-compatibly by stashing
the alpha value in uppermost byte of 4-byte hex color value
in Surface and Triangle clauses. The existing files have 00
in the high byte, so RgbColor::FromPackedInt treats that
as "opaque".
This is done specifically targeting the case where an assembly
initially made on Windows is transported to an *nix machine.
On *nix, the paths will be already saved with /, and correctly
read on Windows. On Windows however / is not a first-class separator,
in particular it cannot be used in UNC-style paths \\?\ (which
are the only paths that work with Unicode).

On OS X F11 and F12 are system-global shortcuts. I could switch
them only on Apple platforms, but for consistency I decided not to.
Anyway, neither of those appeared in an official release.
This is required to avoid name conflicts with the Cocoa libraries
on OS X.
I renamed the `class SolveSpace` to `class SolveSpaceUI`, because
that's what it does, and because otherwise the namespace would
have to be called something else than `namespace SolveSpace`.
This will allow solvespace to run on pre-OpenGL 3.0 implementations,
such as VirtualBox (and possibly others).
However, VirtualBox's handling of framebuffer objects is buggy;
it tries to draw over our X window and fails to do either.
I hate OpenGL.
Apparently pbuffers are also a deprecated and unportable
way of offscreen rendering. They're not supported by
Chromium OpenGL implementation, which is what 3D-accelerated
VirtualBox uses.
This would also help a future OS X port.
Apparently GLX pixmaps are an antiquated and unsupported method
for offscreen rendering in OpenGL. Specifically this broke
software and VirtualBox accelerated rendering in Ubuntu trusty
and who knows which other systems.
This commit switches the rendering to use pbuffers instead,
while retaining all other logic. The pbuffers are fixed-size,
because reallocating pbuffers during a resize sometimes results
in segfaults in glXMakeCurrent despite apparently correct
API usage.
